A Square , Try MidWay ..I have bought all My molds from them ...A 1 or 2 cavity is the way to go ...I got a .38 special mold with six cavities ...Boogie broke the handle off the sprue plate it was really hard to open ...so I stick to the 1 or 2 cavity ones now ....
I was looking at one for Boogies .270 some time ago ....
Here is one that I found ... I picked this one out since I read that the .312 mold by Lee turned out projectiles under the size needed for Enfields ... All You need is the proper sizer and the gas checks and off You go producing some fine in-expensive projectiles .....
